I don't know why anyone is surprised by this endorsement. As we Independents sometimes say, there is nothing worse than a Republican masquerading as a Democrat or a Democrat masquerading as a Republican. Randy Kelly is a Tim Penny, Tom Foley, and Norm Coleman politician, they don't know who they are, so they don't know where they are going, and they flip parties whenever it suits their purposes.
All I can say is this should open the field for someone of substance to run for Mayor next time. Any takers?
